According to Ricardo Talbot, Chief Science Officer with Elmo Solutions, "We are pleased - and very proud - that once, again, Elmo BoM was among the first products to pass Inventor 10 certification with flying colors, without any modification whatsoever. We believe our enhanced solution will help PLM/CAD customers obtain the best possible return on their huge past investment in the creation and maintenance of their digital design data and metadata by making these priceless assets available to all departments of a company (production, sales, marketing, costing, service, etc.). Elmo BoM was the first of our rich collection of tools that will allow to dig for these hidden treasures."

Elmo Solutions is the leader in extraction and processing of PDM metadata, announces that its Elmo BoM CAD/PLM-to-MRP/ERP exchange application has successfully passed Autodesk Certification for Autodesk Inventor 10. Autodesk works with selected third-party developers to help deliver complete manufacturing solutions. The company is committed to developing products that adhere to the Autodesk Inventor Certification Program, ensuring that customers are utilizing the best working combination of products to meet their needs. Autodesk has certified that Elmo BoM has demonstrated the highest level of interoperability with Autodesk Inventor.

This unique software solution ships in two languages (English and French), and is available as a trial version for download directly from the Elmo Solutions. Elmo BoM not only addresses the needs of Autodesk users, but also those of all their colleagues, particularly those who work along the production process. Elmo BoM allows extracting and exporting, in just one single operation, of the exact composition of all the Inventor assemblies, subassemblies and parts, and all of the properties ("iProperties") of each part, including custom, user-defined properties. It can also harvest all of the blocks, with and without attributes, found in DWG documents, as well as AutoCAD Electrical, AutoCAD Mechanical and Mechanical Desktop Bills of Materials. Prior creation of Parts Lists or BoMs is not required to obtain the BoM (Bills Of Materials), which takes the form of a single XML or Tab-delimited file which can then be imported or attached in third-party applications (such as Excel, Access, etc.), or directly brought into a MRP/ERP system.
